LOVI POE plays her most daring role to date in Regal’s new release, “The Escort”, where she has hot love scenes with Derek Ramsay and Christopher de Leon directed by Enzo Williams. “Parehong matindi ang love scenes ko with them,” she says. “But hindi ako nahirapan kasi pareho silang magaling mag-alaga sa kaeksena nila. First time ko to work with Derek and I enjoyed it kasi he can be funny and goofy on the set. Kay Sir Boyet naman, we’ve worked na before in a teleserye, ‘Beautiful Strangers’, pero walang love scene kundi rape scene yung ginawa namin doon. Doing a love scene with a respected actor like him who’s considered the Drama King is a dream come true for me.”

Her career is really coming up roses as she also has a hit primetime soap, “Someone to Watch Over Me”. “My co-stars in the show, Tom Rodriguez, Max Collins and I really want to thank all the viewers who continue to watch and support us every night. Maraming nagagalingan sa amin kasi matinding drama ang ginagawa namin every night and I really want to thank Tom and Max kasi mahuhusay sila at sa kanila ako humuhugot kapag kaeksena ko sila. Nagkakatulungan kami talaga.”
Lovi is leaving her condo in the Fort to move to a new house that she bought in Quezon City. “But I’m still having it renovated. I have to move para maging mas malapit ako sa GMA-7. Grabe na kasi ang traffic situation. Parang as days go by, mas patindi nang patindi and it’s getting to be unbearable, so lilipat na lang ako sa QC.”

She’s currently being linked to a European guy, Chris Johnson, who visits her here in Manila. They look lovey-dovey in their photos taken when they’re together, but she continues to deny that they are in a relationship. “He’s just a friend,” she insists. “I have no boyfriend now. Hindi pa ako ready for another relationship.”

But her ex, Rocco Nacino, is now said to be playing beautiful music with his “Encantadia” co-star, Sanya Lopez. What can she say about this? “Nothing. Wala na ako roon. We’ve both moved on naman, so okay lang.”
